Lighting the way
21 June 2021
At the Rail Live exhibition held last week near Stratford-upon-Avon, VSL (Vanguard Solutions Ltd) launched the RailLight.
This is an LED strip light system that can be attached quickly to stairways or clipped to the side of rail tracks to illuminate the surrounding area.
It is powered batteries that are charged during the day by a solar panel and it can be operated via a simple press button timer switch.
VSL’s commercial director Craig Cherry says that the RailLight can do away with the need for engine-driven lighting equipment in areas that only need to be illuminated occasionally or for short periods.
